If you had a barky dog triggered by cars/people/animals going past...

...would you allow it to sit in the window bottom, knowing it barks every ten to twenty minutes all day everyday and you have neighbours either side? I can't understand why my neighbours do this and make my life hellish.

Thats really terrible. People just have zero consideration for their neighbours it seems.

I laughed immoderately - and cruelly - at this

OP your neighbours need Purlfrost!

Ive heard them this morning everytime the dog has barked just saying 'ey' to it in soften tones. Beats the shouting at the dog they used to do, but they simply dont have a clue of how to train or perhaps just dont care.

My springer loves barking at the neighbours going past as well. I live in a v quiet cul de sac so it didn’t happen very often, but still pissed me off.

I put window frosting on the lower half of the windows so she can’t see out and she stopped - it’s easily solved.

Buy a maraca and gift it to
your neighbour.
it works wonders for our Weimaraner who is a multi sensory dog, so reacts to movement, scent and sound. Shake it once and he stops immediately.
I think it’s highly irresponsible and unfair on a dog to let it bark endlessly.
a few barks are acceptable, you should never stop your dog using his voice.
But endless barking signifies a stressed dog

Do you live next door to my mum? This is her Yorkie, barks at everything and everyone all day every day. 🤯

You don’t need to live in darkness. We’ve covered the bottom half of the front window with adhesive frosting film. No more barking.
